Blog Article

Contemporary project risk management literature introduces uncertainty, i.e., the lack of information, as a fundamental basis of project Dishwasher Motor Rotor risks.

In this study the authors assert that equivocality, i.e., the existence of multiple and conflicting interpretations, can also serve as a basis of risks.
